I water my washes down to the point they are see through. This gives me more control over the washes and I add multiple washes to get the affect I need. If a wash goes somewhere you want then you can take a dry paint brush to it and it will absorb the excess wash and you can try it again.

Well I gave up waiting for a response hehe. I used 3 parts Elf Fleshtone with one part Cold Grey. Then I added Elfic Flesh (yes a 3rd color but they are all 3 Vallejo Game Colors) to the original mix in several steps to get the lighter and lighter flesh tones. Worked out well and won my first Malifaux painting contest hehe. I would like to see more paint articles from Wyrd though. I can only find them in the chronicles and they seem to be old and not the mini's I want to see painted.

My question mimics Irish Rebel. I have been painting for about 7 years now and have always managed to stay away from light flesh tones. Now that I have moved onto you models I find I can not hide any more heh. It is less about the skill set and more about color choices. I have yet to find anything that does not end up looking pinkish or orange. What colors did you use on the Rasputina flesh?
